Blame every problem for the next 4 years on those Obama tax increases

#####

You must accept that this will NEVER happen! No matter what January brings, even if it is the end of the world, it will be blamed on Republicans by pop media: the only kind of “news” dissemination that has influence with the majority of Americans.

Meanwhile back at the next campaign - every single Republican will receive the criticism that ended George Bush 41’s political career. Remember: his pledge was “no new taxes” and then one of his own advisers convinced him that a “little tax increase in order to cooperate with Congress” was a good idea.

The only thing that GHWB is remembered for is his renege on his pledge.

Where's the part where I say Republicans need to raise taxes? This is exactly what I am trying to avoid.

Not one Republican will say (admit) specifically that they will oppose tax cuts for the middle class if they cant get them for ‘the rich’ too, not even Norquist, because that would be putting gun to their own heads as far as credibility.

So what Norquist seems to be doing instead (trying to wipe out Republicans apparently) is getting on the Sunday shows threatening primary challenges using the following ‘coded language:

“ Raising taxes” is his coded message meaning cutting them for the middle class WITHOUT being able to cut-them for those fraction incomes above too, .cause that wont even get to Os desk.(probably wont get a Senate vote).

So Norquist doesn't say on the Sundays shows :
You better not vote for that middle class tax cut bill or we will come after you”,
NO-NO,NO, because his stating his position so clearly would make him a national lepr.

Instead he says :
You better not raise taxes or we will come after you

Well when they have to be that dishonest you KNOW they are up to no good. Screw him on that.
